On the eve of the first match of New Zealands Chappell-Hadlee Trophy defence, captain Kane Williamson would not divulge whether express bowler Lockie Ferguson would be unleashed on the Australians.The series begins at the SCG on Sunday and Williamson said New Zealand wanted to wait until the day of the match to assess the pitch and decide whether Ferguson would make his debut. At the very least, Williamson was impressed by what he saw - and faced - from Ferguson in the nets on Saturday.He sent a couple of messages at training, Williamson said. He bowled really nicely so well have to wait and see. He bowls quick and runs in and bumped me a few times which was great. Its what you want to face and its fantastic preparation. The Australians will do the same...Hes a one in 14 chance, I suppose.Whatever XI New Zealand choose, they will have no more than four of the same players who secured the trophy in the third ODI in Hamilton earlier this year: Williamson, Martin Guptill, Henry Nicholls and Matt Henry. And it is possible that Nicholls could yet miss out, with suggestions that New Zealand would give themselves ample bowling options by including both allrounders Jimmy Neesham and Colin de Grandhomme.We want to have another look at the surface tomorrow, Williamson said. Theres a little bit of uncertainty about what the surface might do. It has spun here in the past. It looks a good surface, its quite hard, they might have rolled in perhaps some old grass clippings to get a little bit more grass on it, maybe to add a bit of pace.New Zealand begin this series ranked third on the ICCs one-day international table while Australia are on top. Even if New Zealand were to win all three games they would not gain a position, though it would be enough for Australia to drop below South Africa and into second place.Its an enjoyable series, it always is, and theyre always tough opposition and a very strong side so you dont need more motivation to get up to play your best cricket against the best in the world, Williamson said. The focus is for us to play our best cricket and if we do that we know we can beat anyone. Mike Bibby Jersey . Their 38th instalment is arguably their biggest fight card to date, including three-title fights and a main event which was selected by the fans. The promotion boasts 14-straight years of business and is operated by MFC president Mark Pavelich, who is often overlooked in this country for the foundation hes established for MMA in Canada. O. J. Mayo Jersey . The veteran safety was a starter for the Bengals from 2008-2012. He totaled 41 tackles and three interceptions while starting all but four of the 13 games he played last season. https://www.cheapgrizzlies.com/644p-grayson-allen-jersey-grizzlies.html . After dropping their final six games of December, the Wild opened the new calendar year with four consecutive wins. Following a loss to Colorado on Saturday, Minnesota rebounded the following night to blank Nashville 4-0, but then had the tables turned on them Tuesday. Yuta Watanabe Jersey . The 20-year-old Pelicans big man glanced up and smiled widely at the well-wishers -- a fitting end to a day he wont soon forget. Davis responded to his selection earlier in the day as a Western Conference All-Star with 26 points and 10 rebounds, and the New Orleans Pelicans overcame a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves 98-91 on Friday night. Lorenzen Wright Jersey .R. Smith realized how easily basketball can be taken from him, and he wasnt going to take his place in the NBA for granted anymore.ARDMORE, Pa. -- Dont let the location fool you. Adam Scott spends a lot of time in the Bahamas, which is where he does most of his work. Scott has spent part of his time in the Bahamas the past couple of years, practicing and playing out of Albany Golf Club. The practice is important, because Scott has limited his schedule in recent years, and the key to that is being ready to compete when he does play on tour. "There are times when practice is a couple of hours a day," Scott said. "And then there are times, like last week, where good preparation and good practice is four to five hours a day. "I like that kind of number, because thats about the amount of time that I try to concentrate playing a round on tour. Its not just random. I think the amount of things I do randomly with golf is very few. Most of it is planned and purposeful." He said practicing between four and five hours is the right amount of time to get quality work and keep his focus, as he would in a round of golf. Scott said the new balance of limited tournaments and more practice to keep sharp has made him a better player. He wasnt the first to think of this. "Its no secret," Scott said. "Tiger (Woods) doesnt play much and he plays well all the time. (Greg) Norman played a really limited schedule, and he was a dominant player for a long time. It depends on what you do when youre not playing. Its not sitting at home on the couch. Its doing something thats making you better." But what about the rest of his time in the Bahamas? Go to the beach. Fishing? "I go to the gym," Scott said. And after the gym? "Then I sit on the couch," he said with a smile. ------ THE HANDSHAKE: In what was talked about Monday as "The Handshake," Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia finally saw each other on the practice range for the first time since Garcia jokingly said last month he would have Woods over for dinner during the U.S. Open and "we will serve fried chicken." They shook hands on the range, a moment captured by a fan who posted it to his Twitter account. Woods and Garcia had been going at it since the third round of The Players Championship, a feud that began when Garcia suggested Woods should have been paying attention when taking a club from the bag, which caused the gallery to cheer as Garcia was about to play his shot. They traded bards for the next few weeks through the media, which led to Garccias remark May 22 at a European Tour awards dinner in England.dddddddddddd Both are scheduled to have news conferences Tuesday. ------ ALTERNATES: Former Masters champion Mike Weir has done just enough at qualifying to earn a spot at the U.S. Open. Weir got one of six spots that had been set aside to accommodate anyone who moved into the top 60 in the world ranking published Monday. Kyle Stanley, who finished third at the Memorial, was at No. 60. He was the only one who qualified from the latest world ranking. After that, five players who were alternates at the 36-hole sectional qualifying spots filled the 156-man field. Weir lost in a playoff at the main Ohio qualifier and was first alternate. Also getting into the U.S. Open as a qualifying alternate were Ryan Palmer, Ryan Yip, Rikard Karlberg and Harold Varner III. The next two alternates for the U.S. Open are Jesse Schutte, followed by T.J. Vogel. ------ THE HOGAN PLAQUE: Most players have stopped in the 18th fairway at Merion to see the plaque that commemorates where Ben Hogan hit 1-iron into the green in the final round of the 1950 U.S. Open. It led to par to get him into a three-man playoff that he won the next day. Thats a moment that wont be duplicated this week. For one thing, that distance (214 yards) is more like a 4-iron or 5-iron for the modern player. Plus, no one carries a 1-iron. Jason Day has one in the bag, though its stamped as a 2-iron. He had his equipment company bend the loft of the club so that it works like a 1-iron. Day has had it in play the past few tournaments. Hes not sure if he will use it at Merion, saying its mostly for the British Open at Muirfield. He dropped a ball by the plaque during a practice round Sunday, but this was no time for his new clubs. Day hit 4-iron, instead. ------ ADAMS LOW PROFILE: Except for the biggest stars, most players win a major and hit the talk-show circuit. Adam Scott kept it simple after winning The Masters. He made one appearance on an American TV show, one for his native Australia. "I felt they were important for me to do," Scott said. "I feel Ive been welcomed in the States and really supported and I also wanted to show my appreciation for everyone in America, as well, because Im really lucky how much support I get out here. I really enjoy playing in front of everyone. But I felt thats all I needed to do. I try and entertain people on the golf course, not on talk shows." ' ' '
